SLIPPING AND SLIDING

How does it feel to be 74 years old, weigh around 220 and have your feet slide out from under you in a bathtub.?

Not good......  I was standing up in the shower a little while ago and had bent down and washed my feet with soap (from a soap bar).  I do one foot at a time that way and then move my foot around in the shower water on the bottom of the bathtub until the soap is all off and I can stand on that foot, and lift the other one to wash it.  Evidently I did not get all of the soap off of the clean foot.  I slammed the side of my head into the end wall of the shower and my body hit hard on the floor of the bathtub.  I was dazed for a moment but seem to be okay.  Heart rate moved up a little bit!!  I am now headed out to buy some non-slip mats to put in the bottom of the bathtub!!  Amen...............
